8. Exposure Controls/personal protection
Exposure controls
Protective equipment
Appropriate engineering
controls
Provide adequate ventilation. Personal, workplace environment or biological monitoring may
be required to determine the effectiveness of the ventilation or other control measures and/or
the necessity to use respiratory protective equipment. Use process enclosures, local exhaust
ventilation or other engineering controls as the primary means to minimize worker exposure.
Personal protective equipment should only be used if worker exposure cannot be controlled
adequately by the engineering control measures. Ensure control measures are regularly
inspected and maintained. Ensure operatives are trained to minimize exposure.
Eye/face protection Eyewear complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk assessment indicates
eye contact is possible. Personal protective equipment for eye and face protection should
comply with OSHA 1910.133. Unless the assessment indicates a higher degree of protection
is required, the following protection should be worn: Tight-fitting safety glasses.
Hand protection Chemical-resistant, impervious gloves complying with an approved standard should be worn if
a risk assessment indicates skin contact is possible. The most suitable glove should be
chosen in consultation with the glove supplier/manufacturer, who can provide information
about the breakthrough time of the glove material. To protect hands from chemicals, gloves
should comply with OSHA 1910.138 and be demonstrated to be impervious to the chemical
and resist degradation. Considering the data specified by the glove manufacturer, check
during use that the gloves are retaining their protective properties and change them as soon
as any deterioration is detected. Frequent changes are recommended.
Other skin and body
protection
Appropriate footwear and additional protective clothing complying with an approved standard
should be worn if a risk assessment indicates skin contamination is possible.
Hygiene measures Provide eyewash station and safety shower. Contaminated work clothing should not be
allowed out of the workplace. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Clean equipment
and the work area every day. Good personal hygiene procedures should be implemented.
Wash at the end of each work shift and before eating, smoking and using the toilet. When
using do not eat, drink or smoke. Preventive industrial medical examinations should be carried
out. Warn cleaning personnel of any hazardous properties of the product.
Respiratory protection Respiratory protection complying with an approved standard should be worn if a risk
assessment indicates inhalation of contaminants is possible. Ensure all respiratory protective
equipment is suitable for its intended use and is NIOSH approved. Check that the respirator
fits tightly and the filter is changed regularly. Gas and combination filter cartridges should
comply with OSHA 1910.134. Full face mask respirators with replaceable filter cartridges
should comply with OSHA 1910.134. Half mask and quarter mask respirators with replaceable
filter cartridges should comply with OSHA 1910.134.
Environmental exposure
controls
Keep container tightly sealed when not in use.
